NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
 
(1)    Basis of Presentation and Informational Disclosures
 
Northwest Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company” or “NWBI”), a Maryland corporation headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, is a bank holding company regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“FRB”). The primary activity of the Company is the ownership of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Northwest Bank, a Pennsylvania-chartered savings bank (“Northwest”). Northwest is regulated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking. Northwest operates 142 community-banking offices throughout Pennsylvania, Western New York, Eastern Ohio, and Indiana.
 
The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, Northwest, and Northwest’s subsidiaries Northwest Capital Group, Inc., Great Northwest Corporation, and MutualFirst Interest Company, Inc. The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information or footnotes required for complete annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations have been included. The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared using the accounting policies described in the financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 updated, as required, for any new pronouncements or changes.
 
Certain items previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s reporting format. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. An adjustment has been made to the Consolidated Statements of Income and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022, to reclassify the provision for credit losses - unfunded commitments, previously presented in other expense, to provide additional transparency to financial statement users.

The results of operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023, or any other period.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
On March 15, 2023, the Company awarded employees 176,623 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with a weighted average discounted grant date fair value of $11.28. The RSUs vest over a three-year period with the first vesting occurring one year from the grant date. The Company awarded directors 33,048 restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) with a grant date fair value of $12.80 which fully vest one-year from the grant date. Also, the Company awarded employees 176,623 performance share units (“PSUs”) with a discounted grant date fair value of $10.54. The number of PSUs earned will be based on attainment of certain performance criteria over a three-year period, with the actual number of shares issuable ranging between 0% and 150% of the number of PSUs granted. The PSUs have a three-year cliff vesting, from the date of grant, and any PSUs earned will be issued after the vesting period. As of September 30, 2023, we awarded discretionary grants of 178,483 RSUs with a weighted average grant date fair value of $10.87. These shares vest over a two or three year period with the first vesting occurring one year from the grant date. Stock-based compensation expense of $1.3 million and $944,000 for the quarters ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, was recognized in compensation expense relating to our stock benefit plans. At September 30, 2023, there was compensation expense of $401,000 to be recognized for awarded but unvested stock options, $2.5 million for unvested restricted common shares, $3.7 million to be recognized for awarded but unvested RSUs, $193,000 to be recognized for awarded but unvested RSAs, and $2.1 million to be recognized for awarded but unvested PSUs.

 Income Taxes-Uncertain Tax Positions
 
Accounting standards prescribe a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the company has taken or expects to take on a tax return. A tax benefit from an uncertain position may be recognized only if it is “more likely than not” that the position is sustainable, based on its technical merits. The tax benefit of a qualifying position is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all relevant information. We had $702,000 and $473,000 of liability for unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
 
We recognize interest accrued related to: (1) unrecognized tax benefits in other expenses and (2) refund claims in other operating income. We recognize penalties (if any) in other expenses. We are subject to audit by the Internal Revenue Service and any state in which we conduct business for the tax periods ended December 31, 2022, 2021, 2020 and 2019.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2022-02, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosure.” This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”), while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan modifications when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. This ASU also requires the disclosure of current period gross write-offs by year for origination for financing receivables. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. This ASU is applied prospectively to modifications and write-offs beginning on the first day of the fiscal year of adoption. An entity may elect to adopt a modified retrospective transition method on the recognition and measurement of the TDR guidance.

We adopted ASU 2022-02 using a modified retrospective transition approach related to the recognition and measurement of the TDR guidance and on a prospective basis for modification and write-offs. As a result, the Company was not required to adjust its comparative period financial information for effects of the standard or make the new required ASU 2022-02 disclosure for periods before the date of adoption (i.e. January 1, 2023). This change did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, “Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” This ASU provides temporary optional guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The guidance provides expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments primarily include contract modifications and hedge accounting, as well as providing a one-time election for the sale or transfer of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity. This guidance was effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date to Topic 848”. This guidance extends the guidance of ASU 2022-04 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform.” This ASU provides amendments, which are elective, and apply to all entities that have derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining, discounting or contract price alignment of certain derivative instruments that are modified as a result of the reference rate reform. This ASU is effective upon issuance through December 31, 2024, and can be adopted at any time during this period.

During the current year, we completed our LIBOR transition plan and modified the Company’s loan and other financial instrument contracts that are impacted by the transition. The Company chose the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its alternative replacement for LIBOR on both back-to-back swaps and variable rate loans. There was no material impact to the Company's financial statements as a result of the transition.

The Company does not believe that the available-for-sale debt securities that were in an unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2023, which were comprised of 548 individual securities, represents a credit loss impairment. All of these securities were issued by U.S. government agencies, U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, local municipalities, or represent corporate debt. The securities issued by the U.S. government agencies or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by major rating agencies and have a long history of no credit losses. The securities issued by local municipalities and the corporate debt issues were all highly rated by major rating agencies and have no history of credit losses. The unrealized losses were primarily attributable to changes in the interest rate environment and not due to the credit quality of these investment securities. The Company does not have the intent to sell these investment securities and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell these securities before their anticipated recovery, which may be at maturity.

All of the Company’s held-to-maturity debt securities are issued by U.S. government agencies or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises. These securities are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by major rating agencies and have a long history of no credit losses. The decline in fair value of the held-to-maturity debt securities were primarily attributable to changes in the interest rate environment and not due to the credit quality of these investment securities, therefore, the Company did not record an allowance for credit losses for these securities as of September 30, 2023.

The following table presents the credit quality of our held-to-maturity securities, based on the latest information available as of September 30, 2023 (in thousands). The credit ratings are sourced from nationally recognized rating agencies, which include Moody’s and S&P, and they are presented based on asset type. All of our held-to-maturity securities were current in their payment of principal and interest as of September 30, 2023.

Occasionally, the Company modifies loans to borrowers in financial distress by providing principal forgiveness, term extensions, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or interest rate reduction. When principal forgiveness is provided, the amount of forgiveness is charged off against the allowance for credit losses.

In some cases, the Company provides multiple types of concessions to one loan. Typically, one type of concession, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to experience financial difficulty, another concession, such as principal forgiveness, may be granted. For loans included in the "combination" columns below, multiple types of modifications have been made on the same loan within the current reporting period. The combination is at least two of the following: a term extension, principal forgiveness, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, and/or an interest rate reduction.

The modifications to borrowers experiencing financial distress are included in their respective portfolio segment and the current loan balance and updated loan terms are run through their respective ACL models to arrive at the quantitative portion of the ACL. Subsequent performance of the loans will be measured by delinquency status and will be captured through our ACL models or our qualitative factor assessment, as deemed appropriate. If we no longer believe the loan demonstrates similar risks to their respective portfolio segment an individual assessment will be performed. Upon the Company's determination that a modified loan (or portion of a loan) has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan (or a portion of the loan) is written off. Therefore, the amortized cost basis of the loan is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the allowance for credit losses is adjusted by the same amount.

Credit Quality Indicators: For Commercial Banking we categorize loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. We analyze loans individually by classifying the loans by credit risk. Credit relationships greater than or equal to $1.0 million classified as special mention or substandard are reviewed quarterly for deterioration or improvement to determine if the loan is appropriately classified. We use the following definitions for risk ratings other than pass:
 
Special Mention — Loans designated as special mention have specific, well-defined risk issues, which create a high level of uncertainty regarding the long-term viability of the business. Loans in this class are considered to have high-risk characteristics. A special mention loan exhibits material negative financial trends due to company-specific or systemic conditions. If these potential weaknesses are not mitigated, they threaten the borrower’s capacity to meet its debt obligations. Special mention loans still demonstrate sufficient financial flexibility to react to and positively address the root cause of the adverse financial trends without significant deviations from their current business strategy. Their potential weaknesses deserve our close attention and warrant enhanced monitoring.

 Substandard — Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and payment capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful — Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard. In addition, those weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable. A loan classified as doubtful exhibits discernible loss potential, but a complete loss seems very unlikely. The possibility of a loss on a doubtful loan is high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors that may strengthen the loan, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until a more exact status can be determined.
 
Loss — Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such value that the continuance as a loan is not warranted. A loss classification does not mean that the loan has no recovery or salvage value; instead, it means that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off all or a portion of a basically worthless loan even though partial recovery may be possible in the future.

For Personal Banking loans a pass risk rating is maintained until they are 90 days or greater past due, and risk rating reclassification is based primarily on past due status of the loan. The risk rating categories can generally be described by the following groupings:

Pass — Loans classified as pass are homogeneous loans that are less than 90 days past due from the required payment date at month-end.

Substandard — Loans classified as substandard are homogeneous loans that are greater than 90 days past due from the required payment date at month-end, or homogenous retail loans that are greater than 180 days past due from the required payment date at month-end that has been written down to the value of underlying collateral, less costs to sell.

Doubtful — Loans classified as doubtful are homogeneous loans that are greater than 180 days past due from the required payment date at month-end and not written down to the value of underlying collateral. These loans are generally charged-off in the month in which the 180 day period elapses.

      Total borrowed funds $ 604,587  $ 681,166 
    
Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Pittsburgh, if any, are secured by our residential first mortgage and other qualifying loans. At September 30, 2023, the carrying value of these loans was $6.049 billion. Certain of these borrowings are subject to restrictions or penalties in the event of prepayment.

The revolving line of credit with the FHLB of Pittsburgh carries a commitment of $250.0 million. The rate is adjusted daily by the FHLB of Pittsburgh, and any borrowings on this line may be repaid at any time without penalty. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balance of the revolving line of credit was $119.0 million and $51.3 million, respectively.

30

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, collateralized borrowings due within one year were $48.6 million and $105.8 million, respectively. These borrowings are collateralized by cash or various securities held in safekeeping by the FHLB. At September 30, 2023, the carrying value of the cash and securities used as collateral was $89.3 million.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, collateral received was $61.6 million and $24.1 million, respectively. This represents collateral posted to us from our derivative counterparties.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, term notes payable to the FHLB of Pittsburgh due within one year were $375.4 million and $500.0 million, respectively. The September 30, 2023 total is made up of ten advances: 400,000 at 5.72% maturing October 2, 2023; $100.0 million at 5.65% maturing October 6, 2023; $100.0 million at 5.65% maturing October 13, 2023; $25.0 million at 5.63% maturing October 26, 2023; $25.0 million at 5.66% maturing October 31, 2023; $25.0 million at 5.63% maturing November 9, 2023; $25.0 million at 5.65% maturing November 13, 2023; $25.0 million at 5.62% maturing November 14, 2023; $25.0 million at 5.63% maturing November 21, 2023; and $25.0 million at 5.65% maturing November 30, 2023.

On September 9, 2020, the Company issued $125.0 million of 4.00% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes with a maturity date of September 15, 2030. The subordinated notes, which qualify as Tier 2 capital, bear interest at an annual rate of 4.00%, payable semi-annually in arrears commencing on March 15, 2021, and a floating rate of interest equivalent to the 3-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 3.89% payable quarterly in arrears commencing on December 15, 2025. During the year-ended December 31, 2022 the Company repurchased $10.2 million of subordinated notes leaving $114.8 million of subordinated notes outstanding. The subordinated debt issuance costs of approximately $1.8 million are being amortized over five years on a straight-line basis into interest expense. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, subordinated debentures, net of issuance costs, were $114.1 million and $113.8 million, respectively.

(b)    Trust Preferred Securities

The Company has seven statutory business trusts: Northwest Bancorp Capital Trust III, a Delaware statutory business trust, Northwest Bancorp Statutory Trust IV, a Connecticut statutory business trust, LNB Trust II, a Delaware statutory business trust, Union National Capital Trust I (“UNCT I”), a Delaware statutory business trust, Union National Capital Trust II (“UNCT II”), a Delaware statutory business trust, MFBC Statutory Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust, and Universal Preferred Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trusts”). The Trusts exist solely to issue preferred securities to third parties for cash, issue common securities to the Company in exchange for capitalization of the Trusts, invest the proceeds from the sale of trust securities in an equivalent amount of debentures of the Company, and engage in other activities that are incidental to those previously listed. 

The Trusts have invested the proceeds of the offerings in junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures issued by the Company. The structure of these debentures mirrors the structure of the trust-preferred securities. These subordinated debentures are the sole assets of the Trusts. As the shareholders of the trust preferred securities are the primary beneficiaries of the Trusts, the Trusts are not consolidated in our financial statements.

The following table sets forth a summary of the cumulative trust preferred securities and the junior subordinated debt held by the Trust as of the date listed (dollars in thousands).

Cash distributions on the trust securities are made on a quarterly basis to the extent interest on the debentures is received by the Trusts. We have the right to defer payment of interest on the subordinated debentures at any time, or from time-to-time, for periods not exceeding five years. If interest payments on the subordinated debentures are deferred, the distributions on the trust securities also are deferred. To date there have been no interest deferrals. Interest on the subordinated debentures and distributions on the trust securities is cumulative. Our obligation constitutes a full, irrevocable, and unconditional guarantee on a subordinated basis of the obligations of the trust under the preferred securities.
 
31

The Trusts must redeem the preferred securities when the debentures are paid at maturity or upon an earlier redemption of the debentures to the extent the debentures are redeemed. All or part of the debentures may be redeemed at any time. Also, the debentures may be redeemed at any time if existing laws or regulations, or the interpretation or application of these laws or regulations, change causing:
 
•the interest on the debentures to no longer be deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes;
•the trusts to become subject to federal income tax or to certain other taxes or governmental charges;
•the trusts to register as an investment company; or
•the preferred securities to no longer qualify as Tier I capital. 

We may, at any time, dissolve any of the Trusts and distribute the debentures to the trust security holders, subject to receipt of any required regulatory approvals.

(6)    Guarantees
 
We issue standby letters of credit in the normal course of business. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Standby letters of credit generally are contingent upon the failure of the customer to perform according to the terms of the underlying contract with the third party. We are required to perform under a standby letter of credit when drawn upon by the guaranteed third party in the case of nonperformance by our customer. The credit risk associated with standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers and is subject to normal loan underwriting procedures. Collateral may be obtained based on management’s credit assessment of the customer. At September 30, 2023, the maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these non-recourse standby letters of credit was $45.9 million, of which $28.7 million is fully collateralized. At September 30, 2023, we had a liability which represents deferred income of $1.0 million related to the standby letters of credit.

In addition, we maintain a $5.0 million unsecured line of credit with a correspondent bank for private label credit card facilities for certain existing commercial clients of the Bank, of which $3.4 million in notional value of credit cards have been issued. These issued credit cards had an outstanding balance of $578,000 at September 30, 2023. The clients of the Bank are responsible for repaying any balances due on these credit cards directly to the correspondent bank; however, if the customer fails to repay their balance, the Bank could be required to satisfy the obligation to correspondent bank and initiate collection from our customer as part of the existing credit facility of that customer.

(7)    Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without considering any dilutive items. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS (in thousands, except share data and per share amounts):

(9)    Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
We are required to disclose fair value information about financial instruments whether or not recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. Fair value information of certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments is not required to be disclosed. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.

Financial assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis and certain financial assets and liabilities on a non-recurring basis are accounted for using a three-level hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. This hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices with readily available independent data in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable market inputs (Level 3). When various inputs for measurement fall within different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the lowest level input that has a significant impact on fair value measurement is used.

Financial assets and liabilities are categorized based upon the following characteristics or inputs to the valuation techniques:

•    Level 1 - Financial assets and liabilities for which inputs are observable and are obtained from reliable quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in actively traded markets. This is the most reliable fair value measurement and includes, for example, active exchange-traded equity securities.

•    Level 2 - Financial assets and liabilities for which values are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which values are based on similar assets or liabilities that are actively traded. Level 2 also includes pricing models in which the inputs are corroborated by market data, for example, matrix pricing.

•     Level 3 - Financial assets and liabilities for which values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Level 3 inputs include the following:

◦Quotes from brokers or other external sources that are not considered binding; ◦Quotes from brokers or other external sources where it cannot be determined that market participants would in fact transact for the asset or liability at the quoted price; and
33

◦Quotes and other information from brokers or other external sources where the inputs are not deemed observable.

We are responsible for the valuation process and as part of this process may use data from outside sources in establishing fair value. We perform due diligence to understand the inputs used or how the data was calculated or derived. We also corroborate the reasonableness of external inputs in the valuation process.

The carrying amounts reported in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition approximate fair value for the following financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities available-for-sale, residential mortgage loans held-for-sale, accrued interest receivable, interest rate lock commitments, forward commitments, interest rate swaps, savings and checking deposits, foreign exchange swaps, risk participation agreements, and accrued interest payable.

Marketable Securities
 
Where available, market values are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotes, and prices obtained from independent pricing services.
 
Debt Securities — available-for-sale - Generally, debt securities are valued using pricing for similar securities, recently executed transactions and other pricing models utilizing observable inputs. The valuation for most debt securities is classified as Level 2. Securities within Level 2 include corporate bonds, municipal bonds, mortgage-backed securities and U.S. government obligations. Certain debt securities which were AAA rated at purchase do not have an active market, and as such we have used an alternative method to determine the fair value of these securities. The fair value has been determined using a discounted cash flow model using market assumptions, which generally include cash flow, collateral and other market assumptions. As such, securities which otherwise would have been classified as Level 2 securities if an active market for those assets or similar assets existed are included herein as Level 3 assets.

Debt Securities — held-to-maturity - The fair value of debt securities held-to-maturity is determined in the same manner as debt securities available-for-sale.
 
Loans Receivable

Loans with comparable characteristics including collateral and re-pricing structures are segregated for valuation purposes. Each loan pool is separately valued utilizing a discounted cash flow analysis. Projected monthly cash flows are discounted to present value using a market rate for comparable loans, which is not considered an exit price. Characteristics of comparable loans include remaining term, coupon interest, and estimated prepayment speeds. Delinquent loans are separately evaluated given the impact delinquency has on the projected future cash flow of the loan including the approximate discount or market rate, which is not considered an exit price.

Loans Held-for-Sale

The estimated fair value of loans held-for-sale is based on market bids obtained from potential buyers.
    
FHLB Stock
 
Due to the restrictions placed on transferability of FHLB stock, it is not practical to determine the fair value. FHLB stock is recorded at cost.

Deposit Liabilities

The estimated fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, which includes demand deposits, money market, and other savings accounts, is the amount payable on demand. Although market premiums paid for depository institutions reflect an additional value for these low-cost deposits, adjusting fair value for any value expected to be derived from retaining those deposits for a future period of time or from the benefit that results from the ability to fund interest-earning assets with these deposit liabilities is prohibited. The fair value estimates of deposit liabilities do not include the benefit that results from the low-cost funding provided by these deposits compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the market. Fair values for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies contractual cost currently being offered in the existing portfolio to current market rates being offered locally for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The valuation adjustment for the portfolio consists of the present value of the difference of these two cash flows, discounted at the assumed market rate of the corresponding maturity.
34

Borrowed Funds
 
Fixed rate advances are valued by comparing their contractual cost to the prevailing market cost. The carrying amount of repurchase agreements approximates their fair value.

Subordinated Debentures

The fair value of our subordinated debentures is calculated using the discounted cash flows at rates observable for other similarly traded liabilities.

Junior Subordinated Debentures
 
The fair value of junior subordinated debentures is calculated using the discounted cash flows at the prevailing rate of interest.

Interest Rate Lock Commitments and Forward Commitments

The fair value of interest rate lock commitments is based on the value of underlying loans held-for-sale which is based on quoted prices for similar loans in the secondary market. This value is then adjusted based on the probability of the loan closing (i.e., the “pull-through” amount, a significant unobservable input). The fair value of forward sale commitments is based on quoted prices from the secondary market based on the settlement date of the contracts.

Cash Flow Hedges, Interest Rate and Foreign Exchange Swap Agreements and Risk Participation Agreements

The fair value of interest rate swaps is based upon the present value of the expected future cash flows using the SOFR discount curve, the basis for the underlying interest rate. To price interest rate swaps, cash flows are first projected for each payment date using the fixed rate for the fixed side of the swap and the forward rates for the floating side of the swap. These swap cash flows are then discounted to time zero using SOFR zero-coupon interest rates. The sum of the present value of both legs is the fair market value of the interest rate swap. These valuations have been derived from our third party vendor’s proprietary models rather than actual market quotations. The proprietary models are based upon financial principles and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. The fair value of the foreign exchange swap is derived from proprietary models rather than actual market quotations. The proprietary models are based upon financial principles and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. Risk participation agreements are entered into when Northwest purchases a portion of a commercial loan that has an interest rate swap. Northwest assumes credit risk on its portion of the interest rate swap should the borrower fail to pay as agreed. The value of risk participation agreements is determined based on the value of the swap after considering the credit quality, probability of default, and loss given default of the borrower.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
 
These financial instruments generally are not sold or traded, and estimated fair values are not readily available. However, the fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements. Commitments to extend credit are generally short-term in nature and, if drawn upon, are issued under current market terms. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was no significant unrealized appreciation or depreciation on these financial instruments.

Individually Assessed Loans - A loan is considered to be individually assessed as described in Note 1(f) of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of Part II of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We classify loans individually assessed as nonrecurring Level 3.

Mortgage servicing rights - Mortgage servicing rights represent the value of servicing residential mortgage loans, when the mortgage loans have been sold into the secondary market and the associated servicing has been retained. The value is determined through a discounted cash flow analysis, which uses interest rates, prepayment speeds and delinquency rate assumptions as inputs. All of these assumptions require a significant degree of management judgment. Servicing rights and the related mortgage loans are segregated into categories or homogeneous pools based upon common characteristics. Adjustments are only made when the estimated discounted future cash flows are less than the carrying value, as determined by individual pool. As such, mortgage servicing rights are classified as nonrecurring Level 3.

Real Estate Owned - Real estate owned is comprised of property acquired through foreclosure or voluntarily conveyed by borrowers. These assets are recorded on the date acquired at the lower of the related loan balance or fair value, less estimated disposition costs, with the fair value being determined by appraisal. Subsequently, foreclosed assets are valued at the lower of the amount recorded at acquisition date or fair value, less estimated disposition costs. We classify real estate owned as nonrecurring Level 3. 

The following table presents additional quantitative information about assets measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis and for which we have utilized Level 3 inputs to determine fair value at September 30, 2023 (in thousands): 
  Fair value Valuation techniques Significant
unobservable inputs
Range  (weighted average)
Loans individually assessed $ 13,467  Appraisal value (1) Estimated cost to sell 10.0%
Mortgage servicing rights 198  Discounted cash flow Annual service cost $90
Prepayment rate
6.6% to 15.0% (9.9%)
Expected life (months)
53.1 to 103.5 (75.8)
Option adjusted spread
720 basis points
Forward yield curve
5.44% to 5.60%
Real estate owned, net 363  Appraisal value (1) Estimated cost to sell 15.0%
Loans held for sale 10,592  Quoted prices for similar loans in active markets adjusted by an expected pull-through rate Estimated pull-through rate 100.0%
(1)Fair value is generally determined through independent appraisals of the underlying collateral, which may include Level 3 inputs that are not identifiable, or by using the discounted cash flow method if the loan is not collateral dependent.

(10)    Derivative Financial Instruments
 
We are a party to derivative financial instruments in the normal course of business to manage our own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and to meet the needs of our customers. The primary derivatives that we use are interest rate swaps and caps and foreign exchange contracts, which are entered into with counterparties that meet established credit standards. We believe that the credit risk inherent in all of our derivative contracts is minimal based on our credit standards and the netting and collateral provisions of the interest rate swap agreements.

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments

As of September 30, 2023, the Company has entered into seven separate pay-fixed interest rate swaps in order to synthetically convert short-term three month FHLB advances to fixed-rate term funding with an aggregate value of $175 million with maturities ranging from three to five years. Our risk management objective and strategy for these interest rate swaps at such time was to reduce our exposure to variability in interest-related cash outflows attributable to changes in the USD-SOFR swap rate, the designated benchmark interest rate being hedged. Based upon our contemporaneous quantitative analysis at the inception of the interest rate swaps, we have determined these interest rate swaps qualify for hedge accounting in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Our cash flow hedges are recorded within other assets on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition at their estimated fair value.

As long as the hedge remains highly effective, the changes in the fair value of derivatives designated, and that qualify, as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. A hedging relationship that is determined to not be highly effective no longer qualifies for hedge accounting and any gain or loss is recognized immediately into earnings. Amount reclassified into earnings are included in interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

We act as an interest rate or foreign exchange swap counterparty for certain commercial borrowers in the normal course of servicing our customers, which are accounted for at fair value. We manage our exposure to such interest rate or foreign exchange swaps by entering into corresponding and offsetting interest rate swaps with third parties that mirror the terms of the swaps we have with the commercial borrowers. These positions (referred to as “customer swaps”) directly offset each other and our exposure is the fair value of the derivatives due to changes in credit risk of our commercial borrowers and third parties. Customer swaps are recorded within other assets or other liabilities on the consolidated statement of financial condition at their estimated fair value. Changes to the fair value of assets and liabilities arising from these derivatives are included, net, in other operating income in the Consolidated Statement of Income.
    
We enter into interest rate lock commitments for residential mortgage loans which commit us to lend funds to a potential borrower at a specific interest rate within a specified period of time. Interest rate lock commitments that relate to the origination of mortgage loans that will be held-for-sale are considered derivative financial instruments under applicable accounting guidance. Interest rate lock commitments on loans held-for-sale are carried at fair value in other assets on the consolidated statement of financial condition. Northwest sells loans to the secondary market on a mandatory or best efforts basis. The loans sold on a mandatory basis commit us to deliver a specific principal amount of mortgage loans to an investor at a specified price, by a specified date, or the commitment must be paired off. These forward commitments entered into on a mandatory delivery basis meet the definition of a derivative financial instrument. All closed loans to be sold on a mandatory delivery basis are classified as held-for-sale on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. Changes to the fair value of the interest rate lock commitments and the forward commitments are recorded in mortgage banking income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

We enter into risk participation agreements with financial institution counterparties for interest rate swaps related to loans in which we are a participant. The risk participation agreements provide credit protection to the financial institution should the borrower fail to perform on its interest rate derivative contract with the financial institution. These risk participation agreements are recorded within other liabilities on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition at their estimated fair value. Changes to the fair value of the the risk participation agreements are included in other operating income in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

(11)    Legal Proceedings

We establish accruals for legal proceedings when information related to the loss contingencies represented by those matters indicates both that a loss is probable and that the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. As of September 30, 2023, we do not anticipate that the aggregate ultimate liability arising out of any pending or threatened legal proceedings will be material to our Consolidated Financial Statements. Any such accruals are adjusted thereafter as appropriate to reflect changes in circumstances. Due to the inherent subjectivity of assessments and unpredictability of outcomes of legal proceedings, any amounts accrued may not represent the ultimate loss to us from legal proceedings.

Overview of Critical Accounting Policies Involving Estimates
 
Please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of Part II of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Comparison of Financial Condition

Total assets at September 30, 2023 were $14.362 billion, an increase of $248.9 million, or 1.8%, from $14.113 billion at December 31, 2022. This increase in assets was primarily driven by an increase in loans receivable, partially offset by a decrease in marketable securities. A discussion of significant changes follows.

Total marketable securities decreased by $259.2 million, or 12.3%, to $1.840 billion at September 30, 2023 from $2.099 billion at December 31, 2022. Available-for-sale securities decreased $208.0 million, and held-to-maturity securities decreased $51.1 million. These decreases were driven by the maturity and regular monthly cash flows, in addition to the sale of approximately $110.0 million of available-for-sale securities during the year in order to reallocate these funds into higher interest-earning products.

Gross loans receivable increased by $389.8 million, or 3.6%, to $11.310 billion at September 30, 2023, from $10.920 billion at December 31, 2022. This increase was attributable to organic loan growth. Our commercial loan portfolio increased by $368.6 million, or 32.6%, to $1.501 billion at September 30, 2023, from $1.132 billion at December 31, 2022, primarily as a result of the new lending verticals that we recently implemented. Our commercial real estate loan portfolio increased by $99.5 million, or 3.5%, to $2.923 billion at September 30, 2023, from $2.824 billion at December 31, 2022. These increases in our total business banking loans were slightly offset by a decrease in our personal banking loans of $78.3 million, or 1.1%, to $6.887 billion at September 30, 2023 compared to $6.965 billion at December 31, 2022. This included a $38.9 million, or 3.0%, decrease in our home equity portfolio and a $25.8 million, or 0.7%, decrease in our mortgage portfolio as demand for these products has been impacted by the higher market interest rates.

Total deposits increased by $325.3 million, or 2.8%, to $11.790 billion at September 30, 2023 from $11.465 billion at December 31, 2022. This increase was driven by a $1.206 billion, or 114.6%, increase in time deposits due to customer preferences for this fixed maturity product. Partially offsetting this increase were decreases in savings and money market deposits totaling $573.4 million, or 12.1%, due to customers choosing higher yielding product alternatives. In addition, demand deposit accounts decreased by $307.3 million, or 5.4%, as we believe customers used funds during this period of higher inflationary costs.

Total shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2023 was $1.498 billion, or $11.79 per share, an increase of $6.9 million, or 0.5%, from $1.491 billion, or $11.74 per share, at December 31, 2022. This increase was the result of year-to-date earnings of $105.9 million, partially offset by $76.2 million of cash dividend payments for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as well as a change in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $26.4 million, or 15.4%, primarily due to an increase in unrealized loss on our available-for-sale investment portfolio as a result of higher market interest rates.

Regulatory Capital
 
Financial institutions and their holding companies are subject to various regulatory capital requirements. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by the regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct, material effect on a company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, financial institutions must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting guidelines. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments made by the regulators about components, risk-weighting and other factors.

Applicable rules limit an organization’s capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments if the organization does not hold a “capital conservation buffer” consisting of 2.5% of Total, Tier 1 and Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) capital to risk-weighted assets in addition to the amount necessary to meet its minimum risk-based capital requirements.

Quantitative measures, established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy, require financial institutions to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of Total, CET1 and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital to average assets (as defined). Capital requirements are presented in the tables below (dollars in thousands).

Liquidity
 
We are required to maintain a sufficient level of liquid assets, as determined by management and reviewed for adequacy by the FDIC and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities during their regular examinations. Northwest frequently monitors its liquidity position primarily using the ratio of unencumbered available-for-sale liquid assets as a percentage of deposits and borrowings (“liquidity ratio”). Northwest Bank’s liquidity ratio at September 30, 2023 was 9.66%. We adjust liquidity levels in order to meet funding needs for deposit outflows, payment of real estate taxes and insurance on mortgage loan escrow accounts, repayment of borrowings and loan commitments. At September 30, 2023, Northwest had $3.119 billion of additional borrowing capacity available with the FHLB, including $250.0 million on an overnight line of credit, which had a drawn balance of $119.0 million at September 30, 2023, as well as $302.4 million of borrowing capacity available with the Federal Reserve Bank and $105.0 million with two correspondent banks.

Dividends
 
We paid $25.4 million in cash dividends during the quarters ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. The common stock dividend payout ratio (dividends declared per share divided by net income per diluted share) for September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 64.5% and 69.0% on dividends of $0.20 per share. On October 18, 2023, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.20 per share payable on November 14, 2023 to shareholders of record as of November 2, 2023. This represents the 116th consecutive quarter we have paid a cash dividend.

Nonperforming Assets
 
The following table sets forth information with respect to nonperforming assets. Nonaccrual loans are those loans on which the accrual of interest has ceased. Generally, when a loan is 90 days past due, we fully reverse all accrued interest thereon and cease to accrue interest thereafter. Exceptions are made for loans that have contractually matured, are in the process of being modified to extend the maturity date and are otherwise current as to principal and interest, and well-secured loans that are in the process of collection. Loans may also be placed on nonaccrual before they reach 90 days past due if conditions exist that call into question our ability to collect all contractual interest. Other nonperforming assets represent property acquired through foreclosure or repossession. Foreclosed property is carried at the lower of its fair value less estimated costs to sell or the principal balance of the related loan.

Allowance for Credit Losses
  
On an ongoing basis, the Credit Administration department, as well as loan officers, branch managers and department heads, review and monitor the loan portfolio for problem loans. This portfolio monitoring includes a review of the monthly delinquency reports as well as historical comparisons and trend analysis. Personal and small business commercial loans are classified primarily by delinquency status. In addition, a meeting is held every quarter with each region to monitor the performance and status of commercial loans on an internal watch list. On an on-going basis, the loan officer, in conjunction with a portfolio manager, grades or classifies problem commercial loans or potential problem commercial loans based upon their knowledge of the lending relationship and other information previously accumulated. This rating is also reviewed independently by our Loan Review department on a periodic basis. Our loan grading system for problem commercial loans is consistent with industry regulatory guidelines which classifies loans as “substandard”, “doubtful” or “loss”. Loans that do not expose us to risk sufficient to warrant classification in one of the previous categories, but which possess some weaknesses, are designated as “special mention”. A “substandard” loan is any loan that is 90 days or more contractually delinquent or is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified as “doubtful” have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as “substandard” with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions or values, highly questionable and improbable. Loans classified as “loss” have all the weakness inherent in those classified as “doubtful” and are considered uncollectible.    

48

Credit relationships that have been classified as substandard or doubtful and are greater than or equal to $1.0 million are reviewed by the Credit Administration department to determine if they no longer continue to demonstrate similar risk characteristics to their loan pool. If a loan no longer demonstrates similar risk characteristics to their loan pool they are removed from the pool and an individual assessment will be performed.

If it is determined that a loan needs to be individually assessed, the Credit Administration department determines the proper measure of fair value for each loan based on one of three methods: (1) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (2) the loan’s observable market price; or (3) the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent, less costs of sale or disposal. If the measurement of the fair value of the loan is more or less than the amortized cost basis of the loan, the Credit Administration department adjusts the specific allowance associated with that individual loan accordingly.

If a substandard or doubtful loan is not individually assessed, it is grouped with other loans that possess common characteristics for credit losses and analysis. For the purpose of calculating reserves, we have grouped our loans into seven segments: residential mortgage loans, home equity loans, vehicle loans, consumer loans, commercial real estate loans, commercial real estate loans - owner occupied and commercial loans. The allowance for credit losses is measured using a combination of statistical models and qualitative assessments. We use a twenty four month forecasting period and revert to historical average loss rates thereafter. Reversion to average loss rates takes place over twelve months. Historical average loss rates are calculated using historical data beginning in October 2009 through the current period.

The credit losses for individually assessed loans along with the estimated loss for each homogeneous pool are consolidated into one summary document. This summary schedule along with the support documentation used to establish this schedule is presented to management’s Allowance for Credit Losses Committee (“ACL Committee”) monthly. The ACL Committee reviews and approves the processes and ACL documentation presented. Based on this review and discussion, the appropriate amount of ACL is estimated and any adjustments to reconcile the actual ACL with this estimate are determined. The ACL Committee also considers if any changes to the methodology are needed. In addition to the ACL Committee’s review and approval, a review is performed by the Risk Management Committee of the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis and annually by internal audit.

In addition to the reviews by management’s ACL Committee and the Board of Directors’ Risk Management Committee, regulators from either the FDIC and/or the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities perform an extensive review on at least an annual basis for the adequacy of the ACL and its conformity with regulatory guidelines and pronouncements. Any recommendations or enhancements from these independent parties are considered by management and the ACL Committee and implemented accordingly.

We acknowledge that this is a dynamic process and consists of factors, many of which are external and out of our control that can change frequently, rapidly and substantially. The adequacy of the ACL is based upon estimates using all the information previously discussed as well as current and known circumstances and events. There is no assurance that actual portfolio losses will not be substantially different than those that were estimated.

We utilize a structured methodology each period when analyzing the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses and the related provision for credit losses, which the ACL Committee assesses regularly for appropriateness. As part of the analysis as of September 30, 2023, we considered the most recent economic conditions and forecasts available which incorporated the impact of material recent economic events. In addition, we considered the overall trends in asset quality, reserves on individually assessed loans, historical loss rates and collateral valuations. The ACL increased by $6.8 million, or 5.8%, to $124.8 million, or 1.10% of total loans at September 30, 2023 from $118.0 million, or 1.08% of total loans, at December 31, 2022. This increase was primarily the result of growth within our commercial loan portfolio during the year, as well as forecasted economic deterioration in our allowance for credit loss models.

Total classified loans decreased $27.6 million, or 11.7%, to $208.6 million at September 30, 2023 from $236.2 million at December 31, 2022. This decrease was primarily driven by upgrades and payoffs of loans in our commercial real estate portfolio during the current year.
 
We also consider how the levels of nonaccrual loans and historical charge-offs have influenced the required amount of allowance for credit losses. Nonaccrual loans of $76.7 million, or 0.68% of total loans receivable at September 30, 2023, decreased by $4.6 million, or 5.6%, from $81.2 million, or 0.74% of total loans receivable at December 31, 2022. This decrease primarily related to classification upgrades of loans within our commercial real estate portfolio. As a percentage of average loans, annualized net charge-offs increased to 0.13% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 compared to 0.02% for the year ended December 31, 2022 due to several large recoveries during 2022.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Quarters Ended September 30, 2023 and 2022
 
Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was $39.2 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, an increase of $1.9 million, or 5.1%, from net income of $37.3 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The increase in net income resulted primarily from a decrease in provision for credit losses and an increase in noninterest income. The provision for credit losses decreased $10.3 million, or 91.1%, and noninterest income increased $4.1 million, or 15.2%. These changes were partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense of $8.6 million, or 10.9% and a decrease in net interest income of $4.4 million, or 3.9%. Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 represents annualized returns on average equity and average assets of 10.27% and 1.08%, respectively, compared to 9.84% and 1.05% for the same quarter last year. A further discussion of notable changes follows.

Interest Income
 
Total interest income increased by $33.0 million, or 27.8%, to $151.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $118.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. This increase is attributable to increases in both the average yield and average balance of interest-earning assets. The average yield earned on interest-earning assets increased to 4.49% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 3.58% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 due to the continued rising interest rate environment. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased $249.0 million, or 1.9%, to $13.405 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $13.156 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by a $710.4 million increase in the average balance of loans receivable, offset partially by a $238.7 million decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities and a $193.8 million decrease in the average balance of other interest-earning deposits. These changes are described further below.

Interest income on loans receivable increased by $33.7 million, or 31.5%, to $140.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 compared to $106.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. This increase in interest income was the result of increases in both the average yield and the average balance on loans receivable. The average yield on loans receivable increased to 4.99% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 4.05% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, due to the increase in market interest rates as well as a change in mix to higher yielding loan products. The average balance of loans receivable increased $710.4 million, or 6.8%, to $11.191 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $10.481 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, due to organic loan growth in our commercial, residential mortgage, consumer, and commercial real estate portfolios. Additionally contributing to loan growth were purchases of loan pools during 2022, including $182.8 million in small business equipment finance loans and $188.3 million of one- to four-family jumbo mortgage loans.

Interest income on mortgage-backed securities decreased by $611,000, or 7.0%, to $8.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 compared to $8.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was driven by a $238.7 million, or 11.8%, decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities to $1.781 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $2.020 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 due to the sale of lower yielding available-for-sale securities during the current year along with scheduled payments and maturities. Slightly offsetting this decrease was an increase in the average yield on mortgage-backed securities to 1.81% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 1.72% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 due to the purchase of higher yielding mortgage-backed securities in the prior year.

Interest income on investment securities decreased by $270,000, or 17.5%, to $1.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $1.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was attributable to decreases in both the average yield and the average balance of investment securities. The average yield decreased to 1.52% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 1.59% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, and the average balance of investment securities decreased by $52.6 million, or 13.5%, to $336.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $388.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 as cash flows have been redirected to the higher yield loan portfolio.

Dividends on FHLB stock increased by $520,000, or 351.4%, to $668,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $148,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. This increase was due to increases in both the average balance and the average yield on FHLB stock. The average balance of FHLB stock increased by $23.7 million, or 168.9%, to $37.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $14.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Required FHLB stock holdings fluctuate with, among other things, the utilization of our borrowing capacity as well as capital requirements established by the FHLB. In addition, the average yield increased to 7.03% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 4.19% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 due to increases in market interest rates.





 
50

Interest income on interest-earning deposits decreased by $381,000, or 29.4%, to $914,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $1.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, driven by a decrease in the average balance of interest-earning deposits of $193.8 million, or 76.5%, to $59.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $253.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 as the Bank redeployed these funds into higher yielding loans and investments. Offsetting this decrease in average balance was an increase in the average yield on interest-earning deposits to 6.11% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 2.00% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, due to the aggressive campaign by the Federal Reserve Board over the last year to raise targeted short-term interest rates to combat inflation.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased by $37.4 million, or 636.8%, to $43.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $5.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 due to increases in both the average balance and average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $603.5 million, or 6.53%, to $9.850 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $9.246 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 while the average balance of noninterest-bearing demand deposits decreased by $336.4 million, or 10.9%, to $2.757 billion at September 30, 2023 from $3.093 billion at September 30, 2022. We believe customers utilized funds in their demand deposit accounts for both higher yielding products as well as higher inflationary cost of goods. The increase in average balance of interest-bearing liabilities was driven by an increase in average borrowed funds of $516.4 million, or 406.4%, which were used to fund loan growth. Additionally, the average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased by $86.4 million, or 1.0%, specifically driven by an increase in time deposits due to customer preferences for this fixed maturity product type. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased to 1.74% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 0.25% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, primarily attributable to increases in the interest rates paid on deposit accounts and borrowed funds in response to increases in market interest rates, as well as a change in mix to higher cost products.
 
Net Interest Income
 
Net interest income decreased by $4.4 million, or 3.9%, to $108.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $112.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. This decrease is attributable to the factors discussed above. Our interest rate spread decreased to 2.75% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 3.33% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and our net interest margin decreased to 3.21% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 3.40% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 due to the increase in our cost of interest bearing liabilities.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses decreased by $10.3 million, or 91.1%, to $1.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 compared to $11.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The current period provision for credit losses includes $4.0 million for credit losses - loans and a provision release of $3.0 million for credit losses - unfunded commitments. The prior period provision for credit losses included $7.7 million for credit losses - loans and $3.6 million for credit losses - unfunded commitments. The $3.7 million decrease in the provision for credit losses - loans can be attributed to changes in the economic forecasts reflected in our allowance for credit loss models, as well continued decreases in classified loans. While economic forecasts have continued to deteriorate in the current year, our current allowance reflects such that deterioration was slower during the current period as compared to the same period last year. Classified assets decreased by $29.1 million, or 12.2%, to $208.6 million, or 1.84% of total loans, at September 30, 2023 from $237.7 million, or 2.21% of total loans, at September 30, 2022. The $6.6 million decrease in our provision for credit losses - unfunded commitments was related to the timing of the origination of loans with current off-balance sheet exposure.
     
In determining the amount of the current period provision, we considered current and forecasted economic conditions, including but not limited to improvements in unemployment levels, expected economic growth, bankruptcy filings, and changes in real estate values and the impact of these factors on the quality of our loan portfolio and historical loss experience. We analyze the allowance for credit losses as described in the section entitled “Allowance for Credit Losses.” The provision that is recorded is sufficient, in our judgment, to bring this reserve to a level that reflects the current expected lifetime losses in our loan portfolio relative to loan mix, a reasonable and supportable economic forecast period and historical loss experience at September 30, 2023.

Noninterest Income
 
Noninterest income increased by $4.1 million, or 15.2%, to $30.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $26.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. This increase was driven by a $3.1 million, or 209.2%, increase in income from bank-owned life insurance to $4.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $1.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 due to death benefits received in the current period. In addition, service charges and fees increased $947,000, or 6.6%, to $15.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $14.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 driven by deposit related fees based on customer activity in the current quarter.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased by $8.6 million, or 10.9%, to $87.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $79.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in compensation and employee benefits, other expenses, processing expenses, and FDIC insurance premiums. Compensation and employee benefits expense increased $4.5 million, or 9.7%, to $51.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, from $46.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 primarily as a result of additional talent and expertise to propel the organization to higher performance levels, in particular commercial and small business lending as well as risk management and back office support and infrastructure. Other expenses increased $1.7 million to $2.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, from $321,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 due to an increase in employee relocation and other expenses. Processing expenses increased $1.3 million, or 9.4%, to $14.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, from $13.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 due to the implementation of additional third-party software programs. Lastly, FDIC insurance premiums increased $1.1 million, or 95.1%, to $2.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $1.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 due to an increase in the deposit insurance assessment rate beginning in the first quarter of 2023.

Income Taxes
 
The provision for income taxes decreased by $522,000, or 4.4%, to $11.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from $12.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. This decrease in income taxes was due primarily to a decrease in our effective tax rate in the current year related to bank-owned life insurance tax benefits. We anticipate our effective tax rate to be between 22.5% and 24.5% for the year ending December 31, 2023.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 and 2022
 
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $105.9 million, or $0.83 per diluted share, an increase of $6.9 million, or 7.0%, from $99.0 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in net income resulted from an increase in net interest income of $25.7 million, or 8.5%, a decrease in provision for credit losses of $2.5 million, or 14.3%, and an increase in noninterest income of $1.7 million, or 2.0%. These changes were partially offset by an increase of $20.1 million, or 8.4%, in noninterest expense and an increase in income tax expense of $2.8 million, or 9.6%. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 represents annualized returns on average equity and average assets of 9.37% and 0.99%, respectively, compared to 8.61% and 0.93% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. A further discussion of notable changes follows.
 
Interest Income
 
    Total interest income increased by $109.6 million, or 34.1%, to $430.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $320.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase is the result of increases in both the average yield and average balance of interest-earning assets. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased to 4.31% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from 3.23% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase in average yield is attributed to the increased interest rate environment. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased $67.7 million, or 0.5%, to $13.369 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $13.301 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 driven by an increase in the average balance of loans receivable, offset by a decrease in the average balance of other interest-earning deposits, described further below.

Interest income on loans receivable increased by $106.4 million, or 36.6%, to $397.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $290.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase is attributed to increases in both the average yield and the average balance of loans receivable. The average yield on loans receivable increased to 4.81% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from 3.82% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to the increase in market interest rates. The average balance of loans receivable increased $867.5 million, or 8.5%, to $11.049 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $10.182 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to organic loan growth in our commercial, residential mortgage, and consumer portfolios. Additionally contributing to loan growth were purchases of loan pools during 2022 of small business equipment finance loans and one- to four-family jumbo mortgage loans.

    Interest income on mortgage-backed securities increased by $2.7 million, or 12.3%, to $24.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $22.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase is attributed to an increase in the average yield on mortgage-backed securities to 1.80% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from 1.50% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to the purchase of higher yielding mortgage-backed securities in the prior year. Partially offsetting this increase was a decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities of $123.1 million, or 6.2%, to $1.850 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $1.973 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to the sale of available-for-sale securities during the year coupled with regularly scheduled payments and maturities.
52

Interest income on investment securities remained relatively flat, increasing by $34,000, or 0.8%, to $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. This increase is attributable to an increase in the average yield on investment securities. The average yield on investment securities increased to 1.58% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from 1.51% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Slightly offsetting this increase in average yield was a decrease in the average balance of investment securities by $14.9 million, or 3.9%, to $365.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $379.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
 
Dividends on FHLB stock increased by $1.9 million, or 608.0%, to $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $311,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase was due to increases in both the average balance and the average yield of FHLB stock. The average balance of FHLB stock increased $27.2 million, or 197.2%, to $40.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $13.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Required FHLB stock holdings fluctuate with, among other things, the utilization of our borrowing capacity as well as capital requirements established by the FHLB. Additionally, the average yield increased to 7.19% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from 3.02% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, due to increases in market interest rates.
 
Interest income on interest-earning deposits decreased by $1.5 million, or 44.0%, to $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease is attributable to a decrease in the average balance of interest-earning deposits by $688.9 million, or 91.4%, to $64.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $753.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as the Bank redeployed these funds into higher yielding loans and investments. Partially offsetting this decrease in average balance was an increase in the average yield on interest-earning deposits to 4.00% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from 0.60% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, due to the campaign by the Federal Reserve Board over the last year to raise targeted short-term interest rates to combat inflation.

Interest Expense
 
Interest expense increased by $83.8 million, or 484.4%, to $101.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $17.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase in interest expense was due to increases in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities and the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities as well as the change in liability mix. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased to 1.40% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from 0.25% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 resulting primarily from the rising interest rate environment. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased by $252.0 million, or 2.7%, to $9.677 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $9.425 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 driven by an increase in average borrowed funds by $608.6 million, or 463.3%. Wholesale borrowings were utilized to fund loan growth as well as replace the decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits which declined by $351.9 million, or 3.9%. In addition, noninterest-bearing demand deposits decreased by $259.5 million, or 8.4%, as we believe customers used funds during a period of higher inflationary costs and searched for higher yield alternatives.
 
Net Interest Income
 
Net interest income increased by $25.7 million, or 8.5%, to $329.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $303.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase is attributable to the factors discussed above. Our interest rate spread decreased to 2.91% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from 2.98% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and our net interest margin increased to 3.29% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from 3.05% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to the change in market rates as well as the change in our interest-earning asset and funding mix.

Provision for Credit Losses

    The provision for credit losses decreased by $2.5 million, or 14.3%, to $14.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $17.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The current period provision for credit losses includes $14.9 million for credit losses - loans and $65,000 for credit losses - unfunded commitments. The prior period provision for credit losses includes $8.8 million for credit losses - loans and $8.6 million for credit losses - unfunded commitments. The $6.0 million increase in the provision for credit losses - loans was driven by continued growth within our loan portfolio, as well as forecasted economic deterioration reflected in our allowance for credit loss models. This was partially offset by an $8.5 million decrease in our provision for credit losses - unfunded commitments compared to the same period last year based on the timing of the origination of loans with current off-balance sheet exposure.

Annualized net charge-offs to average loans increased to 0.10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from 0.02% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to several large recoveries during 2022. Additionally, classified assets declined by $29.1 million, or 12.2%, to $208.6 million, or 1.84% of loans outstanding at September 30, 2023 from $237.7 million, or 2.21% of loans outstanding at September 30, 2022 resulting primarily from upgrades and payoffs within our commercial real estate portfolio.
53

     
In determining the amount of the current period provision, we considered current economic conditions, including but not limited to unemployment levels, bankruptcy filings, and changes in real estate values and the impact of these factors on the quality of our loan portfolio and historical loss experience.  We analyze the allowance for credit losses as described in the section entitled "Allowance for Credit Losses."  The provision that is recorded is sufficient, in our judgment, to bring this reserve to a level that reflects the current expected lifetime losses in our loan portfolio relative to loan mix, a reasonable and supportable economic forecast period and historical loss experience at September 30, 2023.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income increased by $1.7 million, or 2.0%, to $84.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $83.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase was primarily due to increases in service charges and fees, income from bank-owned life insurance, and a gain on the sale of Small Business Administration (SBA) loans. Service charges and fees increased by $2.2 million, or 5.4%, to $43.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $41.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 driven primarily by commercial loan fees and an increase in deposit related fees based on customer activity in the current year. In addition, income from bank-owned life insurance increased $1.7 million, or 30.5%, to $7.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $5.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to death benefits recognized in the current period. We also recognized a $1.4 million gain on the sale of SBA loans during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 due to this newly launched lending vertical. Partially offsetting these increases to income was a decrease in mortgage banking income of $2.2 million, or 50.2%, to $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $4.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to the volatile interest rate environment causing less favorable pricing in the secondary market, as well as a decrease in mortgage volumes primarily due to higher market interest rates.

In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized an $8.3 million gain on the sale of the servicing rights for a $1.3 billion one- to four- family mortgage portfolio. We tried to maximize our profit in the current interest rate environment as we pivot towards a commercial bank, and it also enabled us to accelerate the cash flow from our investment portfolio by selling approximately $110.0 million of investment securities yielding 2.0% for an equivalent $8.3 million loss and reinvesting these proceeds into commercial loans yielding over 7.0%.

Noninterest Expense
 
Noninterest expense increased by $20.1 million, or 8.4%, to $260.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from $240.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase was due to increases in almost all expense categories due to both inflationary costs as well as the continued build out of talent and infrastructure necessary to propel the organization to a higher level of performance. In particular, processing expenses increased by $4.8 million, or 12.2%, to $43.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from $38.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to the implementation of third party software programs. Compensation and employee benefits increased by $3.8 million, or 2.7%, to $145.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $141.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 driven by increases in commercial lending, small business lending, risk management and internal audit salaries and benefits over the past twelve months. FDIC insurance premiums increased $3.2 million, or 91.6%, to $6.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to an increase in the deposit insurance assessment rate beginning in the first quarter of 2023. Merger, asset disposition and restructuring expense increased $3.0 million, or 219.9%, to $4.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to the severance and fixed asset charges related to the branch optimization and personnel reductions previously announced. Other expenses increased by $2.4 million, or 83.3%, to $5.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to an increase in employee relocation and other expenses. Additionally, professional service expense increased by $2.3 million, or 24.8%, to $11.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from $9.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to the use of third-party consulting and staffing support. Lastly, marketing expenses increased by $1.8 million, or 28.6%, to $8.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from $6.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due primarily to deposit marketing campaigns.

Income Taxes
 
The provision for income taxes increased by $2.8 million, or 9.6%, to $32.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from $29.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase was primarily due to the increase in income before tax of $9.8 million, or 7.6%. We anticipate our effective tax rate to be between 22.5% and 24.5% for the year ending December 31, 2023.

Rate/Volume Analysis
(in thousands)
 
The following table represents the extent to which changes in interest rates and changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities have affected interest income and interest expense during the periods indicated. Information is provided in each category with respect to (i) changes attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate), (ii) changes attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume), and (iii) net change. Changes that cannot be attributed to either rate or volume have been allocated to both rate and volume.

Item 3.        QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
As the holding company for a savings bank, one of our primary market risks is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the sensitivity of net interest income to variations in interest rates over a specified time period. The sensitivity results from differences in the time periods in which interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities mature or re-price. We attempt to control interest rate risk by matching, within acceptable limits, the re-pricing periods of assets and liabilities. We have attempted to limit our exposure to interest sensitivity by increasing core deposits, enticing customers to extend certificates of deposit maturities, borrowing funds with fixed-rates and longer maturities and by shortening the maturities of our assets by emphasizing the origination of more short-term fixed rate loans and adjustable rate loans. We also have the ability to sell a portion of the long-term, fixed-rate mortgage loans that we originate. In addition, we purchase shorter term or adjustable-rate investment securities and mortgage-backed securities.

We have an Asset/Liability Committee consisting of members of management which meets monthly to review market interest rates, economic conditions, the pricing of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the balance sheet structure. On a quarterly basis, this Committee also reviews the interest rate risk position and cash flow projections.
 
The Board of Directors has a Risk Management Committee which meets quarterly and reviews interest rate risk and trends, our interest sensitivity position, the liquidity position and the market risk inherent in the investment portfolio.
 
In an effort to assess interest rate risk and market risk, we utilize a simulation model to determine the effect of immediate incremental increases and decreases in interest rates on net income and the market value of equity. Certain assumptions are made regarding loan prepayments and decay rates of savings and interest-bearing demand accounts. Because it is difficult to accurately project the market reaction of depositors and borrowers, the effect of actual changes in interest rates on these assumptions may differ from simulated results. We have established the following guidelines for assessing interest rate risk:
 
Net interest income simulation. Given a parallel shift of 100 basis points (“bps”), 200 bps and 300 bps in interest rates, the estimated net income may not decrease by more than 5%, 10% and 15%, respectively, within a one-year period.

Net income simulation. Given a parallel shift of 100 bps, 200 bps and 300 bps in interest rates, the estimated net income may not decrease by more than 10%, 20% and 30%, respectively, within a one-year period.
 
Market value of equity simulation. The market value of equity is the present value of assets and liabilities. Given a parallel shift of 100 bps, 200 bps and 300 bps in interest rates, the market value of equity may not decrease by more than 15%, 30% and 35%, respectively, from the computed economic value at current interest rate levels.
 
The following table illustrates the simulated impact of a 100 bps, 200 bps or 300 bps upward or a 100 bps, 200 bps or 300 bps downward movement in interest rates on net income, return on average equity, earnings per share and market value of equity. This analysis was prepared assuming that interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability levels at September 30, 2023 remain constant. The impact of the rate movements was computed by simulating the effect of an immediate and sustained shift in interest rates over a twelve-month period from September 30, 2023 levels.
  Increase Decrease
Parallel shift in interest rates over the next 12 months 100 bps 200 bps 300 bps 100 bps 200 bps 300 bps
Projected percentage increase/(decrease) in net interest income (0.1) % (1.3) % (3.8) % (0.7  %) (5.7  %) (10.8  %)
Projected percentage increase/(decrease) in net income (0.2) % (2.6) % (7.5) % (1.7  %) (12.2  %) (23.2  %)
Projected increase/(decrease) in return on average equity (0.1) % (2.4) % (7.1) % (1.5  %) (11.6  %) (22.2  %)
Projected increase/(decrease) in earnings per share $ (0.01) $ (0.04) $ (0.10) $ (0.03) $ (0.16) $ (0.30)
Projected percentage increase/(decrease) in market value of equity (8.8  %) (19.0  %) (33.3  %) 10.4  % 18.2  % 25.7  %
 
The figures included in the table above represent projections that were computed based upon certain assumptions including prepayment rates and decay rates. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, cannot precisely predict the impact of changes in interest rates. Actual results may differ significantly due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes and changes in market conditions, and actions that may be taken by management in response to interest rate changes.

Item 4.        CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Under the supervision of and with the participation of management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
 
There were no changes in the internal controls over financial reporting during the period covered by this report or in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II.    OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.        LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
We are subject to a number of asserted and unasserted claims encountered in the normal course of business. We believe that any additional liability, other than that which has already been accrued, that may result from such potential litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the financial statements. However, we cannot presently determine whether or not any claims against us will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in any future reporting period. Refer to Note 11.
 
Item 1A.    RISK FACTORS

Except as reported in Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q we have filed during the year ended December 31, 2023, there have been no material updates or additions to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additional risks not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
